As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Is this a GS1150 carburetor?

I recently purchased a set of 36 mm. carburetors from somebody on ebay. He described them as a set from a 1985 GS1150. After receiving them, I have doubts because of the number 32 etched into the bottom of each of the carbs. Check out the pictures. Can somebody verify if these truly are 36 mm. carburetors? Thanks in advance.

They look like GS36's to me, but you could measure them to be sure.
 
They are black so either '83 1100 or 1150. 1100 carbs came with alu tops, 1150 came with steel tops. Get a caliper and measure them. They look like 1150 to me.
 
They look exactly like my 1150 carbs, I also looked at the bottom of my bowls using a telescoping mirror because they are now on the bike, it looked like 5E. Which right side up translates to 32 ! :) I would bet they are 1150's, but obviously measure them like the guys said.
